RE5 stopped having realism when I had an inventory of 3 Shotguns, a Minigun, a Rocket Launcher, a Stun Rod, a M500, and a Grenade Launcher.

Resident evil as a whole started being unrealistic when a zombie managed to take 3 magnum shots to the face.

I think that can be blamed on Barry aiming in the wrong spots until the headshot. Then again, he did take 2 rounds to kill a Hunter, so it could also be his ammunition.

But then again, it's hard to find .357 Magnum ammo (if this is RE1, he used the Colt Python) that isn't High Velocity.

Caliber would realistically be irrelevant. Even a 9mm to the head will kill you just as dead, or at least neutralize you as a threat. With zombies, it'd be even more irrelevant.

That said, it could very well be where he's aiming. Contrary to what some people think, most police and military are trained to aim for the torso, rather than the head, because it's a larger target and because a bullet to the heart or lungs will certainly stop you.

When I was talking caliber, I meant it against the Hunters, with their thick scales and all.

there is an argument for both but tbf barry should of been aware that zombies only die with headshots haha

Not necessarily. For all we know, Night of the Living Dead never happened in the RE universe and therefor zombies never became a pop culture icon. Without George Romero's classic, they would never have known what a zombie is and that you have to destroy the brain to kill one.

I can't say this is true, but for now, I can only remind you the existence of the Start screen for Resident Evil: Outbreak File 2

Never played it.

isnt the word zombie used throughout the first few games? so they do know what they are.

In the opening movie of Resident Evil Outbreak File 2 you can see some zombie woman with a White-T shirt on the right hand side in red letters that says Dawn of the Dead. This zombie should be the first zombie you see on the right. Hence, they exist.

I just watched it on YouTube and saw no such thing.

I still think he would have had some idea of what he was facing once he had seen the dogs and then a walking and rotting mess, I can't remember seeing this but I haven't played the game for years.

The most realistic for me is RE1, and RE3 because the events turned out to be real and the flow of the story is very natural. The emotion of the characters I really felt that they were really scared. Uh, what I'm tryin' to say is you were a playing a game but the fear is real and the adrenaline rush is unexplainable.
